Nic Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Remove the gear panel, underneath you will see the gaiter is held in place by a plastic ring, the ring is heat sealed onto the gear panel. If you carefully pull on the side of the ring you will break the pins holding it in place, you will then need to glue the ring back into place.

devan Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I tired to glue the ring back in place, but it didnt work, so i just got my soldering iron out, and melted the plastic pins down so they covered the holes in the gaitor. 2 months later still going strong. Just an option if the ring doesnt work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
